Getting to know you

I was trying to think of a good way to capture all those special things that make up Miss C's life right now and thought I'd try like a Q&A thing to see how that worked. We'll see...

• Favorite Song - A,B,C,D and Ba Ba Black Sheep - of course these things don't come out exactly like that. It's more like ABCD all squished together and it's Ba Ba Back Shee. These songs are sung daily and often. She'll request them in the car and then point to the radio and say, "No Mommy No" while waving her had at the radio until I turn it off. Other music can't interfere with these two favorites. A, B, C, D she has pretty down pat but Ba Ba is a whole other story. She has the tone right but the words just aren't fully there yet.
• Favorite Food - Blueberries and Cookies - this isn't actually 100% true. The kid will eat anything. There really isn't much she won't eat and she tends to eat whatever we eat include guacamole. However, she will pick blueberries out of the fridge and eat every single one of them if we let her. And she LOVES having her coo-coos for snack after dinner. Especially the "man" ones which are actually little Keelber Elves.
• Favorite Book - Anything Book - we have books everywhere and for a second she only wanted to read her Elmo books now it changes daily. Tonight for example she wanted to read the prayer book Granny got her so that's what we read.
• Friends at School - Owen, Vanca, Olivia, Miles - it's so funny and sweet to walk into her class in the morning and hear all her little friends say hi to her by name. Each afternoon when we leave she hugs and kisses them all or gives high fives. She especially likes Owen and every day when we ask her what she did at school it always has to do with Own.
• Creativity- Dress up, dancing, singing, drawing - I think we have a creative girl. We paint, color, draw, sing, dance, etc. pretty much every day in some capacity. It is hilarious to watch her walk around with the microphone that Aunt Dawn gave her singing. Especially if she's wearing her cowboy hat and tutu.
• Favorite toy - Kitchen - we eat a lot of pizza cooked in her fake kitchen. It's interesting to watch how she maneuvers around the little playset taking plates from different spots and getting things ready for us to eat. She also makes sure to tell us things are hot so we blow on them.
• Vocabulary - pretty extensive - while there are still things we don't understand that Miss C says she talks a lot. Conversations are not one sided, we actually banter back and forth. We struggle a bit with our "s" sounds but not all the time. She also doesn't just answer and ask questions she actually knows what is going on and will comment about things going on around her or reference previously discussed things.
• Family - loves them - I keep a board in her room where I hang pictures of our family and friends. We talk about who everyone is and she loves seeing them and talking to them on the phone. She especially loves Cousin Mia and gets all excited about seeing her.
• New Baby -Ram-me - Since we decided to name the new baby Ramsey we have been referring to her as such with Miss C. While I don't think she fully gets there is a new baby coming despite our discussions about it, she does think my belly is named Ram-me. At bedtime she will pull up my shirt and pat my belly saying Night Night Ram-me and then kiss my belly. It's precious.
